Coxeter Catheter male 8.FG 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed for urethral access in male patients, this small-bore catheter provides controlled bladder drainage and temporary urinary access during perioperative care, diagnostic procedures, or short-term catheterization. The 8 FG caliber is selected when a low-profile lumen is preferred—examples include patients with narrow urethral anatomy, minimal expected urine output, or when minimizing urethral dilation and trauma is a priority. The 28 cm length is appropriate to reach the bladder from the male urethral meatus when advanced to proper position.

Design & Configuration

The combination of an 8 FG diameter and 28 cm length balances maneuverability with sufficient reach to access the bladder in adult male patients. A smaller French size reduces insertion force and can decrease patient discomfort and urethral stretching compared with larger-bore catheters. Clinicians should select this caliber when a narrow-lumen catheter meets clinical goals (e.g., monitoring low-volume output, contrast instillation) and consider larger sizes when frequent irrigation or rapid drainage is required.
